Common Signs Of Infertility Revealed

By Emmanuel Palmer


If you are reading this you are probably eager to start a family but you seem to have some problems getting pregnant. Before you start worrying too much about what might be wrong with you, you might want to check with a couple of details that contribute to the outcome of your mission to create a baby.

Are you on top of your ovulation schedule? Sometimes, your fertility problems can be solved simply by having intercourse at the most optimum time of the month. Fertility calculators are highly effective in aiding you through this. If your baby making attempts still has no success after a year of unprotected sex; then you may have to consider internal problems that may have affected your ability to conceive.

There are several signs of infertility that you should look out for. Infertility is when a person is unable to produce an offspring. There are times the reasons are directly related to the lifestyle one has. If you keep away from caffeine, nicotine and alcohol, you greatly increase your chances to have a baby. More often than not though, infertility is because of some disruption in the biological workings of your body like amenorrhea.

Amenorrhea is when the woman is not having her menstrual cycle. If you do not have your period and you are past the stage of puberty, are not currently pregnant, or in already in menopause-you need to visit your doctor as soon as you are able. Be informed though that if you have been on birth control pills, it will take a few cycles before your regular monthly flow resumes its normal pattern.

Amenorrhea is caused by several factors. Sometimes hormones needed for ovulation are not produced, or there is a breakdown in the regular functions of the body's reproductive system. Other times, the pituitary gland (the gland that controls growth and sex hormones) and the nervous system act up, thus contributing to the failure of conception.

Weight issues are among the possible signs of infertility for women and men alike. Obesity may be the upshot of a hormonal imbalance that makes it almost impossible for some people to get pregnant. Having insufficient body fat will also make the body conserve energy by ceasing menstruation; or by not producing enough sperm.

Men sometimes also have physical and anatomical deformities that are symptoms of infertility. Undescended testicles prevent the creation of viable sperm needed for successful conception. Men should avoid wearing overly tight pants and having their scrotum exposed to extreme heat. Infertility symptoms for men are not as obvious and may need sperm analysis for verification. However a good indication is the manifestation of a sexual dysfunction that you must ask your doctor about.

If you and your partner have problems getting pregnant and want to undergo treatment or medication, it is highly advisable that you seek your doctor's recommendation first.Infertility may be irreversible for some people, but there are always other alternatives that can help you attain your lifelong dream of a happy family. Take a complete medical examination and consult with your doctor regarding these options.
